Thanks for being so patient for that one and your overall support on the channel! 🫶This month started with the bad news that I'm still unable to monetize the channel, even with my new style of transformative content. Despite all of that, I'm incredibly thankful for the kind audience I have, and I will keep making these videos !💜If you want to contribute to my future videos, I have made a Patreon, otherwise you can just share the videos and help bring attention to the channel and hopefully someday UA-cam will change their mind 🙃 www.patreon.com/ethansbasement
This AI Ian Lore video was an absolutely goated level video drop today. So many good memories and just overall well done production to put it simply and mildly. That effort level doesn’t go unnoticed for long. Love it family member. 👏🏻
@@andrearose98764 thanks a lot! UA-cam is runned by bots unfortunately so my videos get flagged as reused content, I wish a human at youtube would just take the time to review my channel
I didn't realize it was AI Ethan voice until the video pointed that out. My brain doesn't really recognize it as Ethan, but I totally thought it was a real human voice over. Amazingly good
It's actually crazy seeing Ethan talking about how he could be replaced by an ai of his voice on a channel that has literally done that years later hahaha
Oliver tree and Ethan together is everything. ❤️ can’t wait for that video! I wish he would go on their vacation together, I know that was a joke but the content there would be GOLD, lol
Yo I’ve been watching since frenemies but skipped a few and always thought Oliver was just Ethan in costume 😂 then I saw that last episode where he was begging for money and I was like oh crap this isn’t a bit
this channel’s production quality is so good and the work put into the videos obviously makes them transformative. i hope in the near future you get monetization again, keep up the amazing work!
i miss the bit because it was so funny, but they can't really do it again. it only ever happened because Ian literally couldn't live switch when they were on zoom, so he essentially had nothing to do. With the live switching he is essentially focusing and working the entire show, which is why we rarely even get a joke from him (and why he would often not switch to himself when talking).
I really hoped the monetization is corrected for this channel. You put in too much effort and work into these videos for YT to not lift the demonitization. We really have to get the subscription up for this channel!
"Maybe the H3 Podcast could go on for hundreds of years" invoked a new thought process for me... so personally I'M hoping to watch H3 pod with Ethan looking like Larry King. I want him to do this his whole life. 😂 but my NEW thought is, I want Ethan to train one of the boys (or his possible daughter) to replace him.. OR AI & tech will have progressed so far that it will be simple for Teddy/ Bruce/Baby girl - to write out episodes having like hologram Ethan with his AI generated voice. My son is Teddy's age and he would be able to watch too. I actually cannot wait until my son is old enough to watch H3 and we can watch together.😍
Anyone who wants more Ian in their life Ian streams regularly on twitch with the username WorldWideWasteland and also has a youtube channel with all of the past vods on it. Cheers fellas.
when i watch the official h3 lores and ethan is talking i always think its ai ethan speaking and then im like wait no they can just get ethan to say it himself
there's a reason ian has always been my fav crew member. he's so goddamn funny - the whole AI ian bit is the funniest thing ever, the content courts make me laugh so hard every time
I love your lore vids! Sometimes I want to watch certain old bits from the show but don't want to watch every pod they appear in, or try to track down a group of specific highlights. This is perfect :)
Excited for this! I found the podcast during COVID because I hated The Quartering and watched the Content Court on him because I used to love H3H3 videos in college. I had no idea what was going on with AI Ian but I still found it funny
When I first started watching H3, I remember falling asleep with the podcast playing in the background. I woke up later that night and the first thing I saw/heard, was AI Ian, it was terrifying lol I had no idea who he was yet 😂
these are exactly what i wanted from the lore videos as a relatively newer viewer! i wasn’t a big fan of their approach to them, so happy to have these!!
This was some good work. I know this must have taken a bit of time for you. Thank you. I've been watching for a while, but i missed the episode where they explained process of making AI Ian. ❤
Excellent coverage of the lore of Ai Ian, I hope they explain how does Ai Ian works, is it like an chat or is Ian typing or what? keep it up dude great moves!
@@Roquietraren .... Yes. Exactly. It was never actually meant to be a REAL ai... It was just a joke. And keep in mind that this was several years ago when making an actual AI generated voice of someone was drastically harder than it is today. It's literally only in the past few months that that suddenly became super easily accessible for anyone to make. Ofc it wasn't a real AI
i doubt my comment will be seen but i beg you, PLEASE do a lore video about the whole wikifeet / foot soldier / cman history !!!! i have been a fan since 2020 & have seen every episode since, plus many of the old videos so i am familiar for the most part with much of whats happening & even alot of the older inside jokes…. however the foot saga is the one thing i can never seem to find the beginning of. i would truly love to see the evolution of that & you absolutely make the best in terms of lore videos. i’m sure many others would enjoy the backstory on that, considering it’s still mentioned so frequently (as recent as just yesterdays episode) !!! *i’m sorry to annoy anyone who happens to actually see this comment on multiple videos… i’m commenting everywhere hoping to boost my chances channel owner will see / consider the idea. i seriously would love to see this video 😅
The only way I can have members on the channel is by being monetized unfortunately 😞 I wish I didn't have to use a different app like patreon to make it easier for everyone!

Can't believe these wouldn't be monetized! There is so much editing and unique styling. Anyways, thanks for these! They're so fun
@@andrearose98764 thanks a lot! UA-cam is runned by bots unfortunately so my videos get flagged as reused content, I wish a human at youtube would just take the time to review my channel
I absolutely will donate when I get a new job lol! This is amazing content. Like others have said keep it up and you’ll be like n the crew someday!
A.I. Ian will forever be my favourite bit from the show. Ian is such an incredible writer, it's unreal.
Ethans Basement legendary behavior per usual
💜💜💜
I miss AI Ian. Thankfully there's AI Ethan to fill the AI Ian shaped hole in my heart.
I didn't realize it was AI Ethan voice until the video pointed that out. My brain doesn't really recognize it as Ethan, but I totally thought it was a real human voice over. Amazingly good
What the whole AI Ian saga shows is that Ian is a quick-witted super-comedic mind.
Subtly left with robot Whitney
@@Jodykangecause it's hard to chime into the conversation when you have to focus on switching the cameras
they should honestly just hire this channel to do the lore videos 😅
What? Lol
Ethan’s basement never misses. Every video a banger. Really wish they’d just put your videos on the main channel, they are quality
I started watching the show when AI Ian was there and I was so confused. Thanks for resolving this little mystery I had stuck in the back of my mind
It's actually crazy seeing Ethan talking about how he could be replaced by an ai of his voice on a channel that has literally done that years later hahaha
They should hook up chat gpt to AI Ian so every time ethan looks up something AI ian answers
Can you do an Oliver Tree and Ethan’s interactions 😂 thanks for your videos keep me entertained!
Second this. Oliver tree x h3 lore video would be hilarious 😊
Of course, Oliver Tree is already on my list!
They have the funniest interactions lol
Oliver tree and Ethan together is everything. ❤️ can’t wait for that video! I wish he would go on their vacation together, I know that was a joke but the content there would be GOLD, lol
Yo I’ve been watching since frenemies but skipped a few and always thought Oliver was just Ethan in costume 😂 then I saw that last episode where he was begging for money and I was like oh crap this isn’t a bit
Thanks for posting this homie, you're a real one. ❤
My pleasure, I'm very happy about that video, I think I'm starting to find my own format for my videos!
ayyo f helen
Your username just made me realize that Hila Klein has the same initials as Helen Keller...
@@meowJACK wait... Wait! Is she... Oh God no, someone tell Ethan now!!!
this channel’s production quality is so good and the work put into the videos obviously makes them transformative. i hope in the near future you get monetization again, keep up the amazing work!
i just found out a few weeks ago that ian streams on twitch ( WrldWideWasteland ) and seeing his humor out full force has me cracking up each stream.
His streams are next level!
The work you put into these is insane, I hope your monetization is fixed because you deserve every penny. Papa Bless ❤
Ai Ian is basically Ian going goblin mode because he doesn't have to be on camera and I love that for him 😭
I’ve watched h3 for a year and a half - I’ve always wondered about AI Ian, but my favorite character by far! Thanks for this!!
i miss the bit because it was so funny, but they can't really do it again. it only ever happened because Ian literally couldn't live switch when they were on zoom, so he essentially had nothing to do. With the live switching he is essentially focusing and working the entire show, which is why we rarely even get a joke from him (and why he would often not switch to himself when talking).
Damn this is an AMAZING explaination. I never realized that it was so long in the planning, it just sort of happened.
I really hoped the monetization is corrected for this channel. You put in too much effort and work into these videos for YT to not lift the demonitization. We really have to get the subscription up for this channel!
Can't wait for Ian to write for tv shows.
As a fan from just a couple years ago- I really thought AI Ian was computer generated
Thank you for this!! I’ve been a member for 2 years and have had total FOMO over AI Ian. This bit is even funnier than I thought 😂
It's been so long seeing Dan in the scorpion chair, it tripped me out to see him sitting next to Olivia 😂
"Maybe the H3 Podcast could go on for hundreds of years" invoked a new thought process for me... so personally I'M hoping to watch H3 pod with Ethan looking like Larry King.

Ethan will produce content and I will be watching live or ASAP until one of us dies. OG 2015 Stan. In summary: Family, Family, Family
@@matt.stevick hell yes brooother!!!! 2016 stan over here, nothing will keep me from watching 😎
the girl is olive

when i watch the official h3 lores and ethan is talking i always think its ai ethan speaking and then im like wait no they can just get ethan to say it himself
Omg I thought this too while watching h3 lore about Zack 😂😂😂
I thought the official ones sounded more like AI Ethan than real Ethan!
there's a reason ian has always been my fav crew member. he's so goddamn funny - the whole AI ian bit is the funniest thing ever, the content courts make me laugh so hard every time
Exquisite video E-bot. I remember thinking AI Ian was just Ian with a filter on
Wow 🤯 your videos are excellent! This was a great trip down memory lane.
Glad you enjoyed it Joey!
@@ethanbasement I especially enjoy the AI Ethan host/commentary you use 😁
I love your lore vids! Sometimes I want to watch certain old bits from the show but don't want to watch every pod they appear in, or try to track down a group of specific highlights. This is perfect :)
I'm about halfway through the vid and just had to pop in and say well done EB! Excellent as always❤❤❤
I've been a fan for almost 2 yrs & i don't know what i would do without you eb!!! Great moves keep up the good work
Excited for this! I found the podcast during COVID because I hated The Quartering and watched the Content Court on him because I used to love H3H3 videos in college. I had no idea what was going on with AI Ian but I still found it funny
3:03 that sounds like the sick 100 dpi ethan soundbites
I am watching this video on my phone and my television just turned on without me going anywhere near the remote. I think ai Ian might be haunting me 😢
ai ian randomly in the office is so scary. itd make me jump everytime i saw it
awesome lore video ! as a newish fan, your effort is greatly appreciated, especially for ai ian
There is something disturbing about being taught about an AI entity by another AI entity
my all time favorite bit from the podcast
Helll nah. This is so crazy i was literally thinking about the lore of AI ian this morning while watching content court
I freaking love ur channel
I love the a.i. Ethan he’s so cute! These videos are the best
I love a.i Ian, was a heavy hitter for the show. Was always 10/10 when he would come on the show
Another amazing video, love your content!! 👏
ai ian is still one of the best things they did on the podcast
When I first started watching H3, I remember falling asleep with the podcast playing in the background. I woke up later that night and the first thing I saw/heard, was AI Ian, it was terrifying lol I had no idea who he was yet 😂
I was waiting for this H3 lore! I miss ai Ian and content court so much. I wish they’d bring it back.
LFG I’m so excited for this watch
Excited to watch this today! Love your videos and I look forward to more!
I miss AI Ian it got me into the podcast!
One of the sightings that was my fave is when they played squid games and used Ai Ian for red light green light 😂
Thank you for all the hard work Fam! 💕
Awesome work! I actually didn't know all this detail about AI Ian.
☮️As always, I absolutely love your edits and commentary so much. We appreciate all the hard work you put into these.💟🫠
these are exactly what i wanted from the lore videos as a relatively newer viewer! i wasn’t a big fan of their approach to them, so happy to have these!!
You do a great job with your videos! AI Ian was probably my favorite time during the podcasts
u never miss! ty!
Absolutely amazing... wel done AI Ethan
Love your work as always! You never have to apologize, the quality in your work says it all 🙌🏼
Thank you 💜
I appreciate the time and hard work you put into your videos 😊
ethan should hire you
This was some good work. I know this must have taken a bit of time for you. Thank you. I've been watching for a while, but i missed the episode where they explained process of making AI Ian. ❤
I remember being so curious how they pulled off the model, I assumed it was just a digital face replacement filter. The reveal blew me away.
common Ethans Basement W, this video slaps dude
i need a jimmy lee lore video, that would be almost 10 years of lore. your magnus opum! :D
I've pnly been watching for a year or so, I had NO IDEA about this. Loooove it.
Excellent coverage of the lore of Ai Ian, I hope they explain how does Ai Ian works, is it like an chat or is Ian typing or what? keep it up dude great moves!
Ian's got a mic on him and is able to make the mouth of AI Ian move as he talks, it's just a voice filter to make sound like that
@@ethanbasement omg but then it is not an Ai? i mean just a mannequin and a voice filter?
@@Roquietraren .... Yes. Exactly. It was never actually meant to be a REAL ai... It was just a joke. And keep in mind that this was several years ago when making an actual AI generated voice of someone was drastically harder than it is today. It's literally only in the past few months that that suddenly became super easily accessible for anyone to make. Ofc it wasn't a real AI
Ethan didn't give me legs because he was afraid of my killer dance moves.
Thank you for this video, flawless and fantastic as usual 💜
Such a good video! These lore videos are so interesting and entertaining. Keep it up!
Thank you for making these vidoes!!!! You are awesome ❤
Love you dude! Well done
ive been watching h3podcast since the very beginning and i love these lore videos :} memory lane
I always wondered how the AD outro came to fruition! Thanks for all the knowledge
Your videos are awesome. So proud of you! This is great
i doubt my comment will be seen but i beg you, PLEASE do a lore video about the whole wikifeet / foot soldier / cman history !!!!
i have been a fan since 2020 & have seen every episode since, plus many of the old videos so i am familiar for the most part with much of whats happening & even alot of the older inside jokes…. however the foot saga is the one thing i can never seem to find the beginning of.
i would truly love to see the evolution of that & you absolutely make the best in terms of lore videos.
i’m sure many others would enjoy the backstory on that, considering it’s still mentioned so frequently (as recent as just yesterdays episode) !!!
*i’m sorry to annoy anyone who happens to actually see this comment on multiple videos… i’m commenting everywhere hoping to boost my chances channel owner will see / consider the idea. i seriously would love to see this video 😅
These are always so good!!
Bruh this is insane! Great work
Thank you! 😊
Fantastic recap! I realized that I've kinda missed AI Ian at times. It really let his comedic side shine🙂
What an absolute delight this is!!
I remember getting a jump scare when we first saw AI Ian, it’s just glorious just like Ian!
Its too bad you still can't get monization back. These videos are excellent. I had no idea about AI Ian.
AI Ian during quarantine was when I joined the fupaverse. Never knew the backstory till now. Big up!
Ian is legit the funniest crew member
Loved this video! I miss AI Ian so much :’(
Loving your work!!!! Love all the way from Australia ❤
youre amaxing these videos are my fav
another great on ai ethan 👏👏
Each video just gets better and better!
They weren’t talking about the scorpion chair in that studio…so, feels like editing is happening here
Papa bless you Ethan’s basement love the content, you really be putting in the effort
i enjoy your videos just as much as the podcast
YESSSSS I've been looking forward to this one!!! Always wanted to know what the deal is 🤖🤖🤖
Love the great content, please keep it up ❤️
I'm considering singing up to your patron ❤😊 Hopefully you'll be able to turn on members soon!!!!
Cheers from Quebec Canada!
The only way I can have members on the channel is by being monetized unfortunately 😞 I wish I didn't have to use a different app like patreon to make it easier for everyone!
I am obsessed with your videos these are amazing
So happy to know that! Thanks 🙏
we need a wale p video! these are great

These make me wana cry I’ve been here since episode one of the podcast
